Custom 80/20 Racks and Fabrication, Machined In-House

Every custom rack we build is cut, machined and mounted in-house: 10 years of 80/20 aluminum solar racks, plus racks from 6061 aluminum, MIG and TIG welding and plasma cutting. When an off-the-shelf mount won't fit your roof, we make one that does.

How we build

Custom 80/20 racks and tilting brackets, machined in-house

  • Designed and built in-house by people who install them every day
  • Made to fit your rig, not a one-size-fits-all kit
  • We fabricate in-house with our MIG and TIG welders and plasma cutter, including custom aluminum racks with remote-control tilt
  • Coming soon: we're adding a full-size CNC machining center to expand what we can fabricate in-house

Racks and battery racks we've built

On a 2022 Newmar New Aire we put 2400 W of solar on custom 80/20 aluminum racks, bolted to the factory roof-line gussets. Besides 80/20, we also build racks from 6061 aluminum. On a 2023 Essex, we modified the battery rack in-house on our MIG welder to carry a bigger bank. Read the Newmar stories
